    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

    Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”

    @virginmedia my internet is constantly not working it’s really frustrating.

    @virginmedia My husband has called because he is the account holder and has a Virgin phone. Virgin apparently will call tonight/tomorrow morning. However, my feeling now is that your service will work for a time and then will go bad, there is a pattern.

    @virginmedia My broadband is finally back on. But after this latest horrific outage, I am now actively searching for a new provider. #virginoutage

    @virginmedia is there a fault in the SW20 area? No internet since last night and your service checker is not working either.

    Virgin why do I keep losing my mobile network? @virginmedia (been trying to post this since 11am lol) as I have virgin broadband as well. 😤

    @virginmedia broadband not working since late last night and your website appears to be down. What’s going on?

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @VixThatRuns I have a sizeable Samsung. Ditched Virgin Media, the plan was to have Freeview. The tv doesn’t support Freeview!

    @virginmedia you owe me £241.47 in compensation for 45 days without internet service since the start on my contract (22nd July) and the 3 missed engineer appointments. I will be chasing this through @Ofcom. When Will you start providing the service you’re contracted to?

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    My day off and I still cannot watch Amazon prime due to virgin media delivering a ****** service. I really think we need to switch providers now. Enough is enough.

    Virgin media is down and I actually have to talk to my family… yuck.

    @virginmedia I have had replies from a bot but impossible to speak to the agent. I will put a formal complaint if I don’t hear from an agent.

    @virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?

    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    Shockingly bad experience (again) from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - “upgrade” yesterday has wiped out my Wi-Fi - engineer coming next week. Couldn’t make it up, these cowboys really are the worst

  • Nigelellway
    Nigel Ellway (@Nigelellway) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?

    Will Jennings (@willjennings80) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia You're internet is down *again* in sw9 and your internet service checker page does not work on mobile phones

  • Ashley_Rhysss
    #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

  • ranaraptor
    Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia My so called ‘ultrafast, reliable fibre-optic broadband’ has been down all day (!). Unacceptable 😡

    @MoneySavingExp I'm in favour of more control (virgin media constantly stiffing me...), but define "inflation". You also need to factor in how the costs - for the specific business and product - are increasing. It would help if govt. didn't keep finding new ways of driving costs up, also.

    @Benleo Ben bring up your hub on virgin media I guarantee you it’s been hacked and you get a warning. This is happening all over London and I can’t get anybody to help me with it. Bring up your own Virgin media hub and you will see what I mean.

    @virginmedia been locked out of webmail since 22 May. Supposedly repaired & reset but though I can now get into my account I STILL can't access webmail. Still showing Forbidden 403 despite my tech expert working on it several hrs today. 9 WEEKS! Paying £133.50/mth. HELP PLEASE!

  • Fletchmyster85
    Adam Fletcher (@Fletchmyster85) reported

    @virginmedia 3-4 weeks now I've had issues with my broadband and TV. Tried calling but have to drop off because I don't have 30+ mins to wait. Start chats, after the long AI process I sit waiting for a person. Leave chat 30+ mins. Fill out complaints asking for a call from you...

    Kev (@victor50) reported

    @virginmedia if Virgin paid me £5 for every time the wifi went down, I’d be a wealthy man. I am anyway, but not quite enough to sue under the trades description act for diabolical service. Absolutely awful. The new provider can’t get in our area quick enough.

  • PaulFJonescom
    Paul Jones (@PaulFJonescom) reported

    @virginmedia are totally incompetent. Cancelled my service. Was told I will get a final bill and can ignore my current bill. Now have final bill and have a late payment charge for previous bill added. Cant get through on phone lines. Be wary when cancelling your services people!

  • NitonCalling
    Rachel (@NitonCalling) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an issue with your email servers? I’m getting the odd few emails but know I’ve not received others and not showing on webmail either

    @United_Webby @virginmedia @virginmedia are without doubt the worst company I've ever dealt with. Nothing ever works and you can't speak to anyone about it. Don't do it Webby.

    @virginmedia will I get compensation from you for being down ? …… I work from home and you are now costing me money for every hour you are down ?
